A seated man on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head armrests and gold dragon-like backrest is the central figure. He wears a black cap, a red-orange dhoti-style wrap, a multicolour flower garland and gold ornaments, with a bindi and vibhuti marks on his forehead. He sits cross-legged with one hand raised. Around him, devotees in white and cream traditional clothes sit or kneel: a man in white shirt bends forward toward him, a woman in white with a gold border sits at left, and several women in white and cream saris sit at right. Red velvet cushions and colourful floral garlands decorate the setting, with a brass lamp stand at right. The central figure is described with the appearance-based label a person, based on his saffron-red attire, ornate gold chain, rudraksha-style beads and the throne setting.
